We offer a range of services for adults with complex disabilities across Perth.
If you have, or the person you care for has, an acquired or progressive neurological disability (including Younger Onset Dementia), physical or psychosocial disability, we’re here to support you. Our NDIS registered services will not only help you set your sights on a goal – they’ll help you get there too.
We can provide services in the comfort of your home, and our friendly team can provide you support and help you build your independence.
As a registered NDIS service provider in Perth, we operate in accordance with the high standards for NDIS providers set by the Quality and Safeguards Commission. We are continually working to improve our services to meet the ever changing needs of people with disabilities.

Learn moreThe NDIS explained
The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) provides services and support to people with disabilities, their families and carers.
It provides reasonable and necessary funding to people with a permanent and significant disability to access the supports and services they need to live and enjoy their life. Instead of providing block funding to agencies and community organisations, the NDIS gives funding directly to people with a disability.
If you’re eligible for NDIS funding, you will have an individual plan that lists your goals and the funding that you have received.
You can use your funding to purchase supports and services that will help you achieve your goals. Everyone has different goals, but your goals may include things like getting and keeping a job, making friends or participating in a local community activity. NDIS participants control the support they receive, when they receive it, and who provides it.
